1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: This study aimed to investigate the effect of tolvaptan on metabolism and electrolyte homeostasis in patients with heart failure (HF). Methods: Literature databases, such as PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP, and WanFang Data, were systematically searched for relevant trials from inception to November 4, 2023. We used the fixed effect model to combine the effect sizes and used Results: 16 studies were eligible for further analysis. No significant differences were identified in the incidence of hyperuricemia between the tolvaptan group and the placebo group (odds ratio (OR) = 1.23, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.97 to 1.55, Conclusions: Tolvaptan reduced the level of blood uric acid compared to conventional diuretics, and could be used as a substitute for traditional diuretics for HF patients with a high risk of gout.
